Woodside Energy (ASX: WDS) v Santos Ltd (ASX: STO)

Hi MM team, great service and I m a very happy investor as a result, can I ask a boring, procedural question please. Can you please revert to quoting Woodside daily price action in your end of day report as I feel Santos is more about corporate plays and a smaller energy player than the larger big daddy international oil and gas player, yes, I am an investor in Woodside, maybe bias. Have a great week, also hopefully the Maroons have won the 1st state of origin by time of publishing your weekend report, Cheers Steve K

Answer

Hi Steve,

Firstly, the Maroons didn’t go according to plan, though they looked the better team when they had 13 on the field. A very tough call on KP!

In terms of Woodside and Santos we agree with you that the former is probably more widely held across MM members, and we’ve amended the table accordingly!

The Match Out: ASX falls as Middle East tensions flare again

A tough session for the ASX today following fresh escalation in the Middle East. The local market turned sharply lower after Iran claimed it had targeted a US military base following American airstrikes near Bandar Abbas, reigniting fears around oil supply disruptions with U.S President Donald Trump objecting to Iran’s claim to the Strait of Hormuz and asserting no one nation should control the vital waterway – a key sticking point in resolving the crisis.

What Matters Today: Four ASX Stocks set to benefit as Inflation remains muted

The ASX 200 roared back to life on Wednesday, reversing early weakness to close up 0.7%, with aggressive late-session buying sweeping through the market and reigniting risk appetite. Over 70% of the main board closed higher, but it was the rate-sensitive stocks that started to move after the April inflation numbers came in slightly better than expected - Consumer Discretionary (+1.8%), Tech (+1.8%), Utilities (+1.7%), and Real Estate (+1.6%) were the top four sectors on the day.
